[QUOTE]Originally posted by Phelps: [QB] I'm sure nobody in the world has any idea what most of the Defiant's details are supposed to represent. That's why I say, bring in Rick Sternbach to do the blueprints after Martin's done with his sketches. They could've tried to assign meaning to all of the random features we see, but maybe not everything worked visually. Also, most of the widgets are on the underside of the model, in the cavity surrounded by Deck 4. Kinda difficult to have a phaser emitter or a torpedo launcher there. Most of the Defiant's weaponry is probably hidden under hull plates. Ever noticed how all of these random phasers or torpedoes were always shown from a distance in order to conceal the lack of features on the model? Of course, once they started using CGI more, we would see the hull plates pull aside, revealing the escape pods or shuttlebays underneath. All of this would've been rather difficult to do using motion control alone, which is what DS9 was using 80% of the time. [/QB][/QUOTE]
